4340 Community Dentistry Practicum (2-4)
The community dentistry practicum provides the student with an opportunity for
personal exploration into the many settings of community dentistry. These
experiences may lead the student into clinical activities as well as dental
health educational programs. The student will have the opportunity to work with
various community health professionals in the Kansas City area. The student
will need reliable transportation and should expect some experiences to require
travel. Possibilities for practicum experiences are broad and will be defined
after an initial assessment of the student's interest and goals. An individual
learning contract will be written following the assessment. The student will be
required to meet as a group periodically though out the semester.
